OAKLAND (CBS SF) – A stolen pickup truck was recovered Thursday morning from the water near the Overstock.com Coliseum in Oakland, a fire department battalion chief said.

Emergency crews began a rescue operation because it was unclear at first if anyone was inside the truck, which was spotted mostly submerged in Elmhurst Creek at about 8:25 a.m. near 7101 Edgewater Drive, Battalion Chief Eleanor Bolin-Chew said.
